That same year, sponsored by the Argentine Consulate in New York, she presented her works at the Angel Orensanz Foundation in New York. In 2000 she adopted a unique abstract style which has personalized and characterized her work ever since.

In 2007 she took part in Venice at the Pardes Institute (Rosetto Dialetico). This work was presented under the name of “Cosmo Pasionale”.  In 2008 she donated several art works to the Point Coeur Foundation which were sold in New York by Sotheby’s. In 2016 The World Bank acquired four art pieces for their Washington DC headquarters.
